Diabetes Awareness Month
Written By Jamie Lynn Dodd
On a brisk early March morning in 2004, I sat in a cold room in a stiff hospital bed strung up to an IV after having what seemed like an endless amount of blood drawn, scared beyond reason at the feelings of everything being explained to me by the doctors and nurses which sound so foreign and unknown. I was told that my blood sugar was 9 times higher than what was considered normal; a number that should have been fatal.

Written By Inesa Ponomariovaite

The Russell Langhammer Interview
Written By Steve Kravets
It is because first my doctors told me to go home and to take care of whatever business I needed to do before I died. Then a priest came in behind him and gave me Last Rights, again. I said to myself, screw you both. I am not that type of person. I am Russell Langhammer, I compete head-to-head and we Langhammer’s do not quit. I will not walk away from this challenge, even if it is the biggest I have ever faced before, in my 54 years of living so far.
An Interview with Jeremy Smith
Written By Casey Renteria
At 35 years old he was diagnosed with Crohn’s and eosinophilic esophagitis.

Breaking the ‘Curse’ of Menstruation: Celebrating a Woman’s Cycle with the Support of Cannabis
Written By Dr. Dana Lillestol, PhD
The miseducation, misinformation, and social programming have removed the beauty of a natural hormonal process of a woman that is life-giving. The time has come to celebrate the amazing biology of the female body, to support our female travelers on this road called life and to relish a woman’s ability to create life.
In tandem, marijuana as a unique plant provides healing properties to any mammal (women are mammals) yet this plant has been discredited and put in question. The propaganda has been very effective in hiding the truth.
How Cannabis Saved Me: An Interview With Richard Mitchell
Written By Casey Renteria
I was introduced to Richard Mitchell a couple of months ago. Before that, I affectionately knew him as the guy who got the Fat Nugs tattoo. Dustin made the official introduction and I’ve since gotten to talk with him about his life and what his journey has been like. Going into this interview I wasn’t sure what to expect - let me tell you it's quite the story!
It affected me so deeply to hear him talk about his experiences and it took a day or two of debriefing before I was ready to listen back to the recording. I am so inspired by him and all he’s been through has turned him into a warrior! I’m so proud and thankful to be able to share that with you. Please meet Richard Mitchell.

What’s in Your Soil?
Written By LaWann Stribling
My love of nature has brought me closer to every quality our Creator has blessed us with. Going down the rabbit hole I learned that many plants individuals attributed as weeds were actually beneficial herbs.
